How does RSS work?
RSS is an online format for automatically syndicating website news and updates. Novartis.com offers this service for free. To receive our latest news via RSS feed, you simply need to have an RSS reader (also known as an aggregator) and subscribe to the feed on Novartis.com. Depending on your needs and the kind of RSS reader you have, you can have the feed delivered via internet browser, mobile phone, and a variety of other ways.

How do I subscribe?

Step 1: Make sure you have an RSS reader
To receive an RSS feed, your computer must be equipped with an RSS reader. Most computers already have some kind of an RSS reader built into their operating or internet navigation systems (including the latest versions of Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox and Safari).

If you have trouble subscribing to our RSS feed, make sure you have the latest version of your reader-equipped internet browser or that the other reader you’ve chosen is compatible with your operating system.

Step 2: Subscribe to the feed
Select your language:

• Get English newsfeed
• Get German newsfeed
• Get French newsfeed

You will be directed to a new window through your RSS reader which will have a button that says “subscribe”.

Specific subscription directions will depend on the RSS reader you use, so please check with the providers of your RSS reader if you are unsure how to subscribe to the feed on your computer. Also note that only the latest version of Internet Explorer automatically supports RSS feeds; If you are having trouble subscribing to the feed while using this browser, make sure your computer has the latest version.
